Right Ventricular Mass: Intracardiac Ectopic Thyroid
A 53-year-old woman complained of intermittent angina pectoris for 2 years and was admitted to our hospital to further evaluate cardiac mass. Electrocardiograph(ECG) showed sinus rhythm with incomplete right bundle branch block. Because a primitive cardiac tumor was highly suspected, exploratory surgery was performed. Intraoperative inspection revealed a red mass with a broad base arising from ...
متن کاملRight ventricular outflow tract tumour: an unsuspected intracardiac ectopic thyroid mass.
Ectopic thyroid is a rare embryogenic anomaly that occurs during its migration from foramen caecum to its pretracheal position. An intracardiac ectopic location is even rarer and found most commonly in the right ventricular outflow tract in sporadic reports. While surgery in symptomatic patients seems appropriate, resection of non-neoplastic ectopic tissue remains a clinical equipoise. Its occu...
متن کاملImage in endocrinology: Intratracheal ectopic thyroid mass.
A 39-yr-old woman presented with dyspnea and cough. She had undergone total thyroidectomy for multinodular goiter 15 yr earlier, with subsequent T4 replacement therapy. Inspiratory stridor was noted. Serum TSH was 2.95 mIU/ml (normal, 0.3–4.0 mIU/ml). A magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the neck showed a subglottic tumor with severe occlusion of the trachea (Figs. 1 and 2). Direct laryngoscopy ...
متن کاملAn Enlarging Cystic Thyroid Mass: Uncommon Cause of Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Parathyroid cysts are quite rare and often mistaken for thyroid cysts. They are mostly nonfunctioning; functioning parathyroid cysts are an extremely rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. We present a 64 year-old man that presented with what is initially diagnosed as an enlarging symptomatic thyroid cyst and treated with suppressive thyroid hormone therapy. After our review, primary hyperp...
متن کاملMetastatic right ventricular mass with intracavitary obliteration
Metastatic cardiac tumors are more common than the primary cardiac tumors. Cervical cancer metastasizing outside of the pelvis is commonly spread to the lungs, liver, bones and lymph nodes than to the heart. Right-sided metastasis to the heart is more common than to the left side. Intramural spread is more common than intracavitary growth of metastatic cardiac tumors leading to delayed clinical...
